Faculty Senator nominations

 The new A&S selection process, effective Fall 2025, is forthcoming.  

Chairs & Directors are to send the names of their nominees and the procedures used to select them to asadmin@unm.edu each year, before winter break. The procedures will document how the nominees’ names were put forward and how the unit faculty approved of their candidacy for service on the Faculty Senate. 

Nominees may be requested to send a one-paragraph statement outlining their motivation to serve on the Faculty Senate to asadmin@unm.edu by the deadline specified in separate communication to unit heads.
